i always have been a cardinals fan my whole life.
the teams i remember when i was a little kid was the cubs,brewers and the cardinals.
i wanted to become mark mcgwire just because he was the star of the cardinals. But my favorite baseball player off all time is Stan the Man. Just wanted to see what some stan musial's cards looks like. Cause i dont have any

Hey, Sean! Did you see this card? It's a fantasy '57 Topps Musial that was posted on another website that was referred to in a recent thread. That would have been a sweet looking card if it were real. By the way, you picked a good guy to hold up as a hero. Musial was a great ballplayer and they say he was a real gentleman, too.

In 1982 at the Cooperstown HOF ceremony, you could still go to the Otsego Hotel and get autos from the HOFers. They put tables on the rear veranda. HOFers filled them and signed autos for FREE,
They did this two days. The line formed early in the morning each day and was a mile long ( not really a mile ). Stan Musial came down the steps and started to sign anything you had. A crowd began to gather and he told eveyone to get back in line, that he would sign for everyone in line, " Just don't crowd around me". And he did. The next day he came down again and did the same thing. I have pictures of him signing for my son. I can't imagine anyone else of that stature doing something like that. A great memory of a grat ballplayer.

Someone on this board (either Alan S. or Hal) has the white background variation, but here's the standard one with a color variation.

You guys got most of Stan's stuff. I think I could add an exhibit card. And maybe one of those Cardinal postcards...

How about this. I know what it is. Someone else here can probably identify it. Sean, what do you think it is?

Sean, look at the size. A stamp would barely fit on it. Your email address in your posts, please sir....

Frank, thanks for the picture, just charming. All the ones I have are square, I have never seen an octogon one.

Frank, your comment reminded me that I have an Exhibit Musial. Hope I'm not stealing your thunder by posting it. Anyway, I am so curious about that charm-sized Musial.


*edit to add scan...duh.

Page 42 of the 2007 Standard Catalog of Baseball Cards.

1950 Baseball Player Charms. One of the challenges in fooling with these if figuring out who is who. There's just the little photo, no name anywhere. I figure that we could tell DiMaggio from Gehrig easily enough. But some of the players might be easy to mix up.

The 1952 Charms have names.

And the 1961 Charms have names. I recall getting one of the 1961's out of a coin machine. I'd guess it was a nickel, put it in, rotate the crank, open the cover of the slot, see who you got. I can't recall who I had, but remember getting one and wanting more. Whoever he was he is now long lost.

Frank -

Have you seen many others of that shape, all the ones I have seen have been rectangular.

That's The Man on the top right of this '63 Topps. Still ripping for average even then.



Actually, this is a cheap attempt to bump up this thread so as to remind Leon that once he gets settled in back from the Nat'l we might have a post-war tab, so as not to be OT here. Thanks bud.

I've only seen a few like the one I have. None that were square.

This eBay item closed a few days ago: 170135141353

I bid on it a little, but was worried because the plastic was clear, I'd not seen that. And, there were photos on both sides as I understood the auction, I'd not seen that, either. One of the photos was DiMaggio. One was Musial. So I just didn't have a lot of faith that that eBay auction was for authentic ones. May have been, just wasn't sure. Have you seen clear ones? Or two sided ones? They were 8 sided like mine. Frank.

And an M114 Baseball Magazine premium. An old uniform number on Mr. Musial. Oh if today's players had his style, his sense of propriety. Wouldn't it be a grand game.
